Reference
Endpoint:
bioaccumulation: aquatic / sediment
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: The study result is based on a well documented QSAR with the test compound fitting well within the applicability domain of the QSAR and the QSAR is used for a well defined endpoint.
Justification for type of information:
QSAR prediction
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Meylan, W.M., Howard, P.H., Boethling, R.S. et. al.; Improved method for estimating bioconcentration bioaccumulation factor from octanol/water partition coefficient. Environ. Toxicol. Chem. 18(4): 664 - 672, 1999
Deviations:
not applicable
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The bioconcentration factor is based on an estimation method, where compounds are classified as ionic or non-ionic. Subsequently for non)-ionic substances a division is made, based on the log Kow. For substances with a log Kow >1; 1 -7 and >7 different regression models were developed with additional correction factors based on the structure of the compound.

log BCF of TMP was estimated to be 1.62 (BCF = 41.61 L/kg wet wt)

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The Log BCF of TMP PE was estimated to be 1.62 (BCF = 41.61 L/kg wet wt)
Executive summary:

Log BCF of TMP PE was estimated using a QSAR and equalled 1.62. The QSAR is well documented, with a clear regression model and used for a well defined endpoint. TMP PE falls well within the applicability domain of the QSAR.
